Hi Abhishek,

Most pages in the Admin interface are shielded with the sec:check-admin 
function, which only tolerates current users that have admin role. And users 
with admin role have always unlimited access to anything.

If you only need a small part of the Admin interface functionality, you are 
best of writing your own using the sec and admin API functions. Bit of a long 
shot, but you could also try to fit a proxy in between that passes through 
GET's, but blocks POST's. Not as nice, but perhaps quickest. Not sure it blocks 
all updates though, there could be updating GET's in the Admin interface..

Kind regards,
Geert

Onderwerp: [MarkLogic Dev General] Read only access to Admin interface.....


Hi Folks

I am trying to have read only access to admin console (8001) of ML 
server...User with this role can logged in to Admin interface to monitor the 
activity but can not modify any other configurations...

The following execute privileges are provided to the custom read-only-admin role

admin-module-read
admin-ui
xdmp:license-accepted
xdmp:license-key-valid
xdmp:pre-release-expires
xdmp:read-host-config-file

Redirecting to security and configuration upgrade page If the user is logged in 
with custom read-only-admin credentials....Going through the administrator 
guide it seems to be impossible as it is mentioned that only user with "admin" 
role can do that...


Is it not possible to provide read only  access to the Admin interface....If 
not so my next step is to built a custom interface and logged in with the user 
which have no admin-module-write privilege..

Sorry for the big mail....Any suggestion will be appreciated.


Thanks & Regards
